Ayodhya case judgment: Supreme Court verdict final, dismisses all review petition

New Delhi : The Supreme Court on Thursday dismissed all petitions seeking a review on Supreme Court's verdict in Ayodhya land dispute case.

The five-judge bench headed by chief justice S A Bobde and comprising justice D Y Chandrachud, Ashok Bhushan, S Abdul Nazeer and Sanjiv Khanna, which took these review pleas into consideration, rejected them saying they do not stand any merits.

A total of 18 review petitions were filed in the Supreme Court, nine of which belonged to the parties involved in earlier litigation and nine others were filed by "third parties". The apex court straight away rejected the review pleas of the third parties.

On November 9, five-judge bench headed by Ranjan Gogoi had pronounced the verdict that entire 2.77 acres of disputed land will be used for Ram temple and another five acres of land will be provided to the Muslims for mosque.
